Sounds very right-focused. What about supporting BLM or publicly talking about defending police? Both incredibly divisive and partisan stances that a DEI company would be obligated to abide by.
This is the crux of DEI -- it is a wedge to place utopian-Leftist ideals into a organization without any votes or consent. If you disagree, you are automatically a racist/oppressor. If you fall into a typical "oppressor" category, white/male generally, you are now under constant Gestapo watch for thought and speech crimes.
No thanks.
Divisiveness. Your organization will be split into many adversarial camps based on their skin color and genitals. They will be taught to treat members of other camps with contempt. These superficial traits will be deemed more important that skill, character, knowledge and ability.
Exclusion. Ideas, thoughts, words and people contradicting our dogma will be excluded by our helpful and friendly speech police. Your employees will be encouraged to report each other for thought crimes, such as using banned words, and will learn to not trust each other.
Inquisition. Any attempt to discuss and criticize this policy will be mercilessly persecuted by ministry of love. Your employees will learn to keep their thoughts to themselves.
I disagree, but even if it is, maybe that's ok. Status quo is active oppression everywhere all the time of certain groups, rebalancing who is getting oppressed for a second is probably a worthy sacrifice to even things out.
I just find it amazing that we essentially achieved something very close to equal opportunity, but because that didn't produce equal outcomes it wasn't good enough, and now we have equity in its place.
I still think that there is a strong possibility that all of this was created to serve as a distraction from the real issues to keep the masses from guillotining the elites for their corruption and destruction of the middle class.
It's about power, it has nothing to do with anyone actually caring about equality. Everyone will be worse of under an "equity" regime, except the nomenklatura
The force behind (regardless whether it is organized or not) will always have ridiculous excuses. They even will tell you it's all based on science. But when you look closer it's not science but some shitty subjective report from Gartner without available data etc.
They will advocate they're introducing fearless culture, but instead it becomes fearful. They will advocate they're introducing inclusive culture, but it becomes exclusive. They will advocate they're introducing equality of opportunities, but it becomes equality of outcome.
After seeing all of this for several years I now have strong opinion that whenever somebody wants to make world more fair it almost always lead to less fair one.
Whereas someone like me, from humble background and acquired much better skills by my own effort and sacrifice, is denied the same opportunities.
Wait until the cycle begins again, and when your country has to experience more mass riots, destruction, and unrest. Don't worry: the Right People™ can always stop the pain--if you let them have power.
